Section 3.48.143. Discovery requests and responses.

	(a)  A party may obtain discovery from another party through interrogatories, requests for production, and requests for admission. A party may notice and conduct a deposition only upon agreement of all parties or with permission of the presiding officer upon motion and a showing that the information sought cannot be efficiently obtained through a less burdensome form of discovery.  
	(b)  A party from whom discovery is requested shall address each discovery request by answering the discovery request, furnishing the documents requested, objecting to the discovery request, or asserting privilege. A party responding to a discovery request shall identify in its response each person who supplied the information contained in the response.  
	(c)  If a party objects to a discovery request, the party shall state the basis for the objection and the facts justifying the objection and respond to the discovery request to the extent the discovery request is not objectionable. If a party asserts privilege, the party shall specify the privilege and respond to the discovery request to the extent the response is not privileged.  
	(d)  A party shall promptly amend or supplement its response to a discovery request if, during the proceeding, the party determines that the response was inaccurate or incomplete or finds additional information responsive to the discovery request.
